Event: QOC Greenbelt
 

QOC Greenbelt - Green

Fun course despite the cold. Aside from getting on the wrong (perpendicular) dirt wall for a moment at 3 and a little hesitation at 13 everything was pretty smooth.

Remembering what I wore last year at the coooold Little Bennett meet, I added a few things since some parts of me were a bit chilly there. This setup worked out well for the day. Once in a while I was a bit hot or a bit cold but overall I stayed just warm enough and didn't get all sweaty.

4 shirts - 2 short sleeve o shirts (leaf Bryzos and light blue Trimtex), one long sleeve (teal Champion with thumb holes) one long sleeve light fleece (black)
3 pants (LLR Jordan athletic tights, thin black Vavrys o pants, SVO pants)
gaiters
3 pairs of socks (two thin black and one thicker white)
ankle braces
buff
hat
2 pairs of thin stretchy gloves

The only issues were that the gaiters wouldn't fit over all the pants (so they were in between layers) and I could barely tie my shoes despite only adding one thin pair of socks.

Green - Splits

Before leaving for DC. Very cold - the only other people seen in the park were one guy with a dog and a few people dropping trees off at the mulching area.

Yes, getting creative here in arctic tundra land.

No riding, given the option to cancel with no fee. Probably could have gone but I was the only person left for 7 PM and half the lights in the indoor weren't working. Road drifts get pretty bad up that way so I stayed home.

Indoors at the mall, but for the sole purpose of exercise.
Afterward, enjoyed the massage chair for a while.
